You know the cavemen gave us woad Roman soldiers built the road Egypt's pyramids were buildings at their peak But when we talk of great invention It's important that we mention A special race who really were unique Plato and Pythagoras Both of them did stagger us Socrates, he showed such great technique Was there ever, ever, ever Such a bunch of chaps so clever? If you want to know the answer... Ask a Greek! I'm a Greek! I'm a Greek! We are all so magnifique We invented sundials, catapults and bricks Chic and sleek, so to speak Our success was not a freak But working hard was how we got our kicks We created the first siren And the first soldering iron The Olympics- well, that was quite a busy week So the next time that you go go To the toy shop for a yo-yo Let them know know it was thought of by a Greek We are Greek! We are Greek! Nowadays you'd call us geek But in ancient times people thought of us as tough Our physique was not weak 'Cause when people gave us cheek We invented boxing and other violent stuff Fiery flame throwers for battle Pinhole cameras, baby rattles 'Is there nothing they can't do?' I hear you shriek So next time you take a shower Or you see a lighthouse tower Just remember they were thought of by a Greek Sound acoustics, ancient harps Music sounds of flats and sharps Central heating at your doorstep Splints, syringes, lamps and forceps Fire extinguishers, thermometers Coin dispensers and odometers Pontoon bridges, pistons, pulleys Parchment, prisms, puppets, dollies Shock absorbers, draughts and maps We were oh such brainy chaps Anchors, chewing gum, the list does never cease Spinning tops, the dice, the crane Do we have to ask again? Did they come from Spain? No, they came from Greece!
